Ran Wei said that this time she must win against Yu Chi Yanyan no matter what, so she specifically dragged Ji Feiyu along. Ji Feiyu stretched her body that had been inactive for three years. Her archery skills were still as good as before. However, when she held the arrow, for some reason, she thought of the man who had once helped her draw the bow. Now he was already in the underworld. He surely couldn't have imagined that one day Ji Feiyu would come back, nor could he have imagined that her poor archery skills in front of him were actually all a disguise.
Three years had passed like flowing water, with the moon and the floating dust.
The two of them ran wildly on the grassland. If it weren't for the howling north wind reminding her that this wasn't a dream, she would have hardly believed that one day she could really gallop on horseback with Ran Wei. Most of what she had said to Ran Wei in the palace back then had come true. The only regret was that she wasn't with him. Now it seemed somewhat like a prosperous and floating life.
"Sister! Come here quickly! I saw a little deer!" Ran Wei shouted happily.
"Okay, I'll come right away!" Ji Feiyu spurred her horse towards her, with a smile on her lips. Ran Wei said that she had found her own place. So had she found hers?
After Ji Feiyu was rescued by the Flower Butterfly back then, in order to help Yong Yaxuan find the medicinal materials to treat his eyes, she first went to Liuyun and then to Beihan.
At that time, Yu Chi Yanyan was very surprised when she knew that Ji Feiyu had come to Beihan. But this made Ran Wei happy for a long time. However, while being happy, Ran Wei still told Ji Feiyu that if she missed her brother, she should go back quickly. Seeing that Ran Wei was so considerate of her, Ji Feiyu couldn't help thinking: Sometimes, as a girl, Ran Wei must feel lonely in the distant Beihan. So she decided to stay and accompany her after she had gathered all the medicinal herbs.
This companionship lasted for three years.
During these three years in Beihan, Ji Feiyu gradually let go of her thoughts. But on some moonlit nights, she would still suddenly think of him. It was cold in Beihan, and she could never warm her bed. The Flower Butterfly said that if she missed Dayong, she could go back with him. But Ji Feiyu always shook her head.
After Ji Feiyu left the palace back then, she went to Lin Chujie and asked him about the truth of the root - cutting incident. Lin Chujie just laughed and said that there was nothing to say about the winner and the loser! Ji Feiyu immediately ordered someone to tie him up and tortured him severely. Finally, she learned that the incident of Lin Zhiran being drugged was actually masterminded by Concubine Li. The purpose was to eliminate Concubine Xin's backer and cut off the Queen's favor, killing two birds with one stone.
Lin Chujie was very indignant when talking about this. The reason was that after she drugged Lin Zhiran, she constantly toyed with him, making him ejaculate and then get aroused again, over and over. Lin Zhiran knew this was unbearable, but he couldn't control his physical desires. So he was in great pain. In order to calm his mind, he even stabbed his thigh root with a lampstand, but was ridiculed by Concubine Li, who directly increased the dosage and sent him to Qiwu Palace.
Later, when the matter was exposed, Lin Zhiran was arrested. In order to save Lin Zhiran, Concubine Xin came up with the plan of pretending to be root - cut. At the same time, she bribed the guarding eunuch to hit Lin Zhiran's injured thigh root to make more blood flow out. The purpose was to win Ji Feiyu's sympathy and let her plead for mercy. If the plea was successful, her cousin could be saved. If it failed, it could also sow discord between the emperor and the queen. Lin Zhiran originally disagreed with this plan, but because Concubine Xin said that this might be his only chance to stay by her side, Lin Zhiran decided to cooperate and act.
Ji Feiyu then asked about the relationship between her sister and Lin Zhiran. Lin Chujie couldn't help crying. He said that he didn't expect his son to die at her hands. If he had known this, he would never have chosen to cooperate with her. Then he began to scold her and her sister, saying that they had ruined Lin Zhiran. Lin Chujie rambled on a lot, so Ji Feiyu learned that her sister was his last trump card, a killer move that he contacted alone and no one else knew about. He didn't care whether Ji Feiyu really opposed the Emperor of Yong or not. In the end, he would use her sister to kill her. He also didn't care whether the people sent by the White Bird could kill the Emperor of Yong. In the end, he would definitely let this crazy woman out to kill the Emperor of Yong! But everything had its accidents. The crazy woman was too dangerous, and finally cost his son's life, making him regret it. Ji Feiyu also learned that actually Lin Zhiran had no direct contact with her sister. It was just because of his father's mediation that the two had met once. Her sister only thought that Lin Zhiran was one of her own and told him to take the opportunity to kill the Emperor of Yong. But she didn't expect that he would turn against her sister in the end.
Finally, Ji Feiyu asked him if he knew what medicine her sister had used to blind the Emperor of Yong's eyes. Lin Chujie told her the name of the medicine, and then Ji Feiyu let him go. Although Ji Feiyu let him go, someone else didn't. So when Ji Feiyu heard the news that he had hanged himself, she was quite surprised.
Later, Ji Feiyu went to Liuyun to clean up the mess and by the way, help Yong Yaxuan find the antidote. But all the antidotes had been destroyed because of the riot of the common people in Liuyun and the burning of the palace. Ji Feiyu had no choice but to find the prescription and prepare the antidote by herself. But several of the medicinal materials for the antidote were not available in Liuyun but in Beihan. Ji Feiyu then went to Beihan and searched every inch of the land in Beihan before she found those precious medicinal materials.
After Ji Feiyu found the medicinal materials, she developed the pills and then ordered someone to send them to Yong Yaxuan.
There was no news about him for the next one or two years. But in the third year, it was heard that he began to regain the bordering countries. He didn't use force, but still used many methods. By then, his eyes should have recovered, right?
Now Dayong had already got rid of the weakness after the war and became prosperous again. But Ji Feiyu could no longer see the prosperous fireworks of the imperial city in the past.
...
A hunting finally ended amidst the jubilant sound of horses' hooves. As Ji Feiyu had expected, they narrowly won against Yu Chi Yanyan in terms of quantity. However, the spoils such as little deer and rabbits were still not as good as jackals, wolves, tigers and leopards. So even though they won, Yu Chi still joked, "Women are just women!"
Ran Wei was naturally a bit unconvinced. "We won. That's that. Why so much nonsense?"
Yu Chi Yanyan quickly comforted her. "Okay, okay, okay. This time the Queen won. We admit defeat!"
Ran Wei couldn't help glaring at him. "Why do I feel that you're saying this so reluctantly?"
Yu Chi Yanyan shouted that he was wronged. "My Queen, where am I being reluctant?"
Ji Feiyu couldn't help finding it funny, but deliberately put on a serious face and said, "If Ran Wei says you're reluctant, you are. Hurry up and hand over all the spoils to make her happy!"
Seeing this, Yu Chi Yanyan quickly bowed and said, "Yes, yes, yes. The sky is big, the earth is big, but my wife is the biggest! Fu Shuang, go and present today's spoils to the Queen with both hands."
Fu Shuang: "..."
Sun Ye said coldly, "Your Majesty, you're really shameless."
Yu Chi Yanyan couldn't help coughing. But Ran Wei laughed and spurred her horse to choose the spoils. Looking at her back, Ji Feiyu couldn't help sighing. Ran Wei's current state should be: Having such a husband, what more could a woman ask for.
